It's funny how not once was a real Plexi used and if you didn't know that, you'd swear they played through one. James Santiago is a national treasure who curates the vintage gear into digital format so we have a chance to experience playing one Kudos to James and the UA team!

If ever an overhead camera showing settings was needed, it was this video. So amazing and screenshotting every 3 seconds to see and magnify Blues settings.

One of the most enjoyable and fulfilling videos I've watched in a while.<br><br>Think about how, no matter where the discussion started, at the end of the day, it comes back to Eddie. He was a TRUE pioneer and literally REDEFINED not only the SOUND of the electric guitar, but how guitars were actually BUILT. He defined an entire generation of electric guitar and now, almost FIFTY YEARS after he arrived on the scene, we are STILL talking about his sound and companies are STILL doing their best to duplicate every nuance of it. Mind-blowing.<br><br>I watched the first video with James and Nick, and ordered the pedal immediately afterward. I was so impressed. As a former vintage Super Lead owner, I can't say enough about it. They absolutely NAILED it. I plug into it, and lose two hours. It's that good.

All I care about is the dog. 😂<br>I love this round table. The Lion sounds incredible. I have had a ‘68 50 watt Plexi, a ‘66 JTM45 and a ‘78 JMP 100 watt and this sounds amazing.
